Fall Colloquium on Supersessionism (Replacement Theology)

Dr. Michael J. Vlach, who is professor of Theology at The Master’s Seminary in Sun Valley California, recently spoke at the STS Fall Colloquium on the topic of Supersessionism–does the church replace, supersede, or fulfill the nation of Israel in God’s plan, or will Israel be saved and restored with a unique identity and role?

The afternoon sessions were recorded and the audio is now available on the STS website. Please visit the STS Fall Colloquium page to learn more.

Shepherds Wives Fellowship

First meeting

Wednesday September 8, 2010 6:15 pm at Colonial Baptist Church Room CC 206-208

Our theme this year is “Serving Together” from Romans 12:4-15. In ministry, we serve together with our husbands, with our families, and with other people in our churches. To help us practically learn how to minister together, we are forming “Teams” this year. Working in teams will give each of us an opportunity to be a part of serving, while learning many practical and helpful ways to organize committees, lead a group, and minister together with fellow Christians for God’s glory.

Mark your calendars and come join us Wednesday September 8 at 6:15 p.m. for a wonderful evening of fellowship as we catch up with each other, and welcome our new student wives to SWF!!
